How To Tell You Need Water Line Replacement
There are a few key signs that let you know your water line is due to be replaced:
- Lower Water Pressure: Ruptures or blockages in your water main line can lead to decreased water pressure throughout your home, since the amount of water moving through the plumbing system is also decreased. You’ll likely need a replacement if your water line is severely damaged causing low water pressure.
- Higher Water Bills: Broken and damaged water lines lead to water waste, which, in turn, increases what you’ll pay for your monthly utility bill.
- Wet Patches or Vibrant Grass on Lawn: Pooling water or unexpectedly lush grass on your lawn can mean your water main line has broken.
- Dirty Water: A clear sign you have a ruptured water line is if you notice debris or dirt in your water supply, as a broken water line can allow these items to leak into your water line.
- Strange Sounds: Hissing or gurgling can indicate a leak in your water line that requires replacement.
- Drainage Issues: If you have clogs spanning multiple sinks or shower and tub basins, the culprit may be main water line drainage issues.

What Influences Water Line Installation Cost
There are a variety of factors influencing how much your water line installation or replacement service will cost. We’ve laid out some of these top elements and how they affect your bottom line.
Line Accessibility
Cost can increase if it’s hard to access your water line and require an excavation or diversion of traffic.
Project Complexity
How large and complex your project is will impact the final price. This comes down to the amount of labor required and the difficulty of the work needing to be done. Our team can tackle a range of project complexity, so reach out to us for any water line installation needs.
Water Line Length
Whether getting a new water line installed or dealing with water line replacement, water line length is one of the biggest factors in overall cost. If your water line is on the longer end, it will cost more to install.
Water Line Materials
When it comes to water line installation, we offer both PVC and copper as materials. If you choose copper, there are benefits including antimicrobial tendencies and durability, but it comes at a higher cost.
Water Line Installation Frequently Asked Questions
We’ve compiled a few answers to questions we receive regarding water line installation in Louisville, KY and beyond.
How are water lines installed?
We’ll either have to dig trenches in your property or we can use trenchless methods where we dig a couple smaller holes in order to minimally disrupt your lawn area.
Why do water lines fail?
Your water line may rupture due to tree root intrusion, the shifting of the ground around the water line, freezing and bursting, and more. The age of your water line is also a factor, with water lines 40-50 years old being more likely to deteriorate and need replacement.
How deep do you install water lines?
The exact depth depends on the frost line in your climate, but generally we bury water lines between 18 and 36 inches underground.
